Creating distinctive spaces that seamlessly combine aesthetics and functionality often requires pushing the limits of creativity. One such project embodies this spirit—a custom-made lighting installation crafted with the Chronos® sheet by Barrisol®. Designed for a client with a passion for original creations, this project represents a striking fusion of technical innovation and contemporary art.
At the core of this concept is an ambitious vision: to craft a “storm cloud” that seems to float within the living space. This installation is far more than a simple light fixture; it is an immersive experience. It commands the room with its dominating presence while also offering versatile, modular lighting. The goal was to do more than illuminate; the aim was to transform the ambiance of the space, adjusting to various moods and needs through subtly integrated lighting effects. The lamp’s color can shift from red to blue to steel grey, providing a range of atmospheres suited to any moment.
The owner, a connoisseur of extraordinary installations, sought a truly unique piece that would tell a story. For this, they turned to Radim Janík, a renowned designer known for his groundbreaking works. Together, they explored the possibilities offered by the Chronos® sheet from Barrisol®. Its flexible texture and translucency enabled the creation of dynamic lighting effects, from the soft glow of a peaceful evening to the dramatic intensity of an electric storm.
The Chronos® sheet was carefully shaped to follow the fluid, dynamic contours of the “cloud.” Discreet LED light sources were integrated into the design, allowing for color and intensity adjustments to suit different times of day or create specific atmospheres. The Chronos® sheet is a high-quality, translucent material that supports innovative lighting solutions. It offers smooth, even light diffusion and can shift colors to create various ambiances. The material is also customizable with printed designs. Lightweight, durable, and fire-resistant, it is easy to install and adaptable to both residential and commercial spaces. The sheet is compatible with LED integration, enabling highly customizable lighting effects. In this way, Chronos® seamlessly blends aesthetics with functionality, making it an ideal choice for unique interior design projects.
This lamp is more than a lighting solution; it is a design masterpiece that illustrates the importance of personalization in high-end interior projects. It does not merely light the space—it transforms it. Each reflection, each shadow, tells its own story. With its elegance and singularity, this installation has become the room’s focal point, captivating attention and inspiring reflection.
By utilizing Barrisol’s Chronos® sheet, Radim Janík has demonstrated how a technical material can form the foundation of a poetic, expressive creation. The result is a one-of-a-kind luminous artwork that reflects the owner’s unique personality and aspirations.
